Try to focus on having a good form. Maybe research how to correctly hold your hands. Strain on the wrist is definitely not good or nomal. Try t hold it a natural as possible.
Bigger hands make it easier to play notes far apart. But as someone with small hands aswell it is not impossible by anymeans. You definitely have to improvise when some tabs expect you to play notes 4 frets apart but it should not come with hurting wrists.
Try to get feel how you can hold your hand naturally focus on playing easier sheets without straining your wrist.
Alright, I will look into what good form is. I know I did at the beginning but I'm nearly certain what I have been doing to try and play is not right.
